Description: This evocative work blends raw human presence with surreal botanical symbolism. A scribbled figure sits in introspective silence, one hand gripping a steaming coffee mug, the other holding a lit cigarette each object a ritual of survival, comfort, or coping. Her dress slips from one shoulder, revealing vulnerability blocked modestly by the cup itself.

Above the eyes, her head transforms into a blooming flower pot suggesting a mind in full bloom or perhaps chaos concealed as beauty. From the mug, a vivid plume of steam in red, orange, and yellow rises a burst of warmth, passion, or possibly burnout.

For those who collect more than just art but moments, rituals, and quiet truths this is the artwork for your sacred space.A study in warmth, chaos, and intimacy.A celebration of daily chaos and sacred quiet. For collectors of emotion and story.
